I need the answer of this question to show it to my dm:

Yesterday when my party and me fight against an orc horde i fire my composite +4 greatbow +1 and hit my target, y roll damage: 1d10 + 5, and my DM tell me what the magic enhancement only applys to the BAB but no to the damage. We check the DMG and says what the magic ranged weapon make magic the arrow for purpose of DR, but what dont says nothing textual about the enhancement to the damage, he dont let me apply the +1 to damage

Im wrong or my dm???

Magic weapons have enhancement bonuses ranging from +1 to +5. They apply these bonuses to both attack and damage rolls when used in combat.

Magic weapon enhancement bonuses apply to both attack and damage rolls.

You can't fire a bow, unless it's Flaming.

He is probably used to Neverwinter Nights, where bows had + to attack, and you had to get arrows to have + to damage...

Arrows can have + to damage, there just isn't much point when it's pretty clear bows give them the bow's bonus.
